Product catalog summary
Overview: The NucleoCounter® YC-100™ is a fluorescence microscope designed for counting yeast cells and assessing their viability. It is applicable in various industries including pharmaceuticals, biotechnology, beer, and food production. The device is user-friendly, requiring minimal training.
Principle: The device uses propidium iodide (PI) dye to bind to DNA, allowing for the detection of total or nonviable cell concentrations based on sample preparation.
Key Benefits:
  • Easy operation with a 30-second analysis time.
  • No need for cleaning or calibration.
  • Maintenance and service-free.
  • Safe sample handling and disposal.
  • Excellent reproducibility and suitable for clustering cells.
Sample Preparation and Analysis:
  • Mix cell sample with Reagent Y100 in a 1:10 ratio.
  • Load the NucleoCassette with the lysate solution.
  • Place the cassette in the instrument and press 'Run'.
  • Results are displayed in 30 seconds and can be transferred to a PC or printed.
Technical Specifications:
  • Loading volume: 60 μl.
  • Measurement volume: 1 μl.
  • Measurement range: 5 x 103 to 6 x 106 cells/ml.
  • Size: 38 x 26 x 22 cm, weight 3 kg.
  • Optional software and printer for documentation.
Operation and Maintenance: The NucleoCassette™ contains the entire flow system and measurement chamber, eliminating the need for cleaning or maintenance. The PI is immobilized within the cassette, ensuring safe disposal after use.

Sample Preparation Mix a representative cell sample with Reagent Y100 in the ratio 1:10 Load the NucleoCassette with the lysate solution by immersing the tip of the cassette into the solution and pressing the piston. Place the NucleoCassette in the instrument and press the “Run” key. After 30 seconds the cell count is presented on the instrument display. Optionally data is transferred to an external PC using USB connection or printed on an external printer. The NucleoCassette™ Propidium Iodide is immobilized in the interior of the disposable NucleoCassette™. When the Cassette has been loaded...
